HI all I'm not sure if charging DSS students is legal. If there is tutoring available to the general population, or can be, then it should be open to the general population. Limiting tutoring to only 100-200 level courses may be for fiscal reasons, but if you have tutors who can tutor higher-level courses, then why not? I've coordinated tutoring and work in a DSS office and wouldn't agree with a tutoring center about charging DSS students for services that are typically free for others (or would be if readily available). Your concerns are understandable but you ask if providing this tutoring is in the best interest of the center and is it sustainable. Yes, it is in the best interest of the center since it provides a needed services for students (and others can use) and it can be made sustainable via continued use of your center. If tutors are idle, this may be a way to increase their services to students, and not just the ones with disabilities. I know we are all facing economic decisions but this seems unfair to these students. Just my opinion... Karyn Schulz, Ed.D.

Hello, We have resolved this issue by agreement with Disabilities Services. We provide the tutoring and Disabilities Services pays for it.

Hello all, We are a small, private institution, and our tutoring center only supports specific courses, mostly introductory(100 and 200 level) courses.  In addition to tutoring all current students, we also work closely with our Disability Services department and provide note taking, and reader/scribe services, and tutoring accommodations.   Our disability services department does not do any tutoring. Our tutoring "accommodation" is most often additional tutoring or 1:1 tutoring, but it is limited to the courses that we support for all students.  Lately, I've had a handful of students registered with Disability services who have requested tutoring for higher level courses (beyond 200), and I'm trying to decide how to handle this.  Currently, I have tutors who are qualified and capable of tutoring the higher level courses, and I want to help these students, yet I'm not sure if this approach is sustainable or "best" for the center.   I'm interested if anyone has a similar situation, and how you handle it at your institution. Thank you, Heather -- Heather (Sherman) Maynard  Franklin University Student Learning Center Academic Support Coordinator [log in to unmask] 614-947-6811 1-866-341-6206 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To access the LRNASST-L archives or User Guide, or to change your subscription options (including subscribe/unsubscribe), point your web browser to http://www.lists.ufl.edu/archives/lrnasst-l.html To contact the LRNASST-L owner, email [log in to unmask] CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information or otherwise be protected by law.
